Detroit oal. . .. * * * HEADLINE on an Associated Press story. ."Primo-Baer Go Be- lieved Near." Yes, but who is the citizen that believes it? Get out the gold bricks, boys and that title to the George Washington bridge and let's get after this character. The story goes even further and says that Madison Square Garden i thinking of promoting it and the fight would be some time this sum- mer. Well, this Madison Square Garden business sort of makes one wonder That management. has taken quite a lacing recently out of the prize fight industry. Slowly but surely the cash customers have been getting wise to this heavyweight title busi- ness. * * * AND justwoffhand, I'd say that APrimo was about ready to go back to his circus after that Lough- ran fiasco down in Florida recently Of course, only about ten people or so saw the fight but lots of others heard about it and how many citi- zens will lay plenty silver on the line to see Clinching Carnera bear- hug 15 rounds again? Anyway even if a miracle did hap- pen and the logical contender met the Italian, the latter wouldn't be able to use successfully the tactics which he employed against Lough- ran. But this is only theoretical, mind you. Personally, I should say that the possibility of their meeting. any time in the near future to be just about as remote as the legalization of beer in State Street restaurants right across from the campus. All of which is plenty remote. * * * THEY are having a tall argunent right now in Detroit about the fluke goal that won the title for the Red Wings. It was fired by Pettinger fromfar out on the ice, a high loop- ing shot that apparently the Chicago goalie lost sight of. Anyway it hit the top of the net, bounced against the Blackhawk goal tender's head and into the net. They have been arguing for days now whether the goalie saw the shot and ducked, thinking it was wide, or whether he just didn't see it. Fun- ny, nobody has thought of asking the goalie yet. Farmer Objects To Football Emphasis BOSTON, March 13. - Because of the great demand for more victories and more action in athletic contests some college and university coaches have resorted to obtaining athletes at any cost, according to Malcolm Farmer, director of athletics at Yale University. This statement is quite apropos at this time because there is a move among the sport fans of the Yale alumni to engage some prominent Big Ten coach to build up Yale's athletic standing. At one time the alumni had strong designs on Mich- igan's Kipke. "Today," continued Farmer, "it seems to be necessary to win almost all the games in order to convince the graduate body and people gen- erally that the athletic season has been successful. A college coach can- not hold his job unless he wins al- most all the games. "I am convinced that the coaches .of this country do not want to prose- lyte, but some of them are practically forced into it, That, it seems to me, is a pretty sorry situation. College athletics are for the benefit of the undergraduates, and I think we should preserve the games for them. If we aren't careful, we are going to spoil the game for the boys." JUST A STEPPING STONE Columbia (Iowa) College appa- rently is a springboard for ambi- tious football coaches. Elmer 'Lay- den, of Notre Dame; Gus Dirais, of Detroit, and Eddie Anderson, of Holy Cross, all made their starts at the Dubuque school. [ii, Grade L I rainng Wolverine Wing Awarded Ber th On First Team Co-Captain Elect Is Chosen As Captain Of Sextet; MacCollum Honored Placed At Defense Jewell, David, Chapman Are Granted Honorable Mention By Experts S Johnny Sherf, co-captain elect of the Michigan hockey team for 1934- 35, was named at left wing on the mythical Midwestern Intercollegiate All-Star hockey team selected recent- . ly by Eddie Lowrey, coach at Michi- gan, Frank Pond, coach at Minne- sota, Art Thomsen, coach at Wiscon- sin, Bert Noblet, coach at Michigan Tech, and Jack Rice, hockey critic _ of the Houghton Mining Gazette. The Wolverine wing was further honored by being named as captain of the first team. Red MacCollum, Wolverine de- fenseman, was awarded the position of right defense on the second team selected by the experts. Other Mich- igan pucksters who received honora- ble mention were: Johnny Jewell, goal; Ted Chapman, defense; and George David, wing. Vote Is Unanimous Sherf and Spencer Wagnild, Min- nesota defenseman, were the only two players of the 20 selected to re- ceive a unanimous vote of the ex- perts, each getting 25 points for their respective positions. The final se- lections were based on five points for a first team selection and three for a second team berth. Although MacCollum played only during the second semester, he gave the other defensemen a battle for a defense position on the first team. Bill Southworth, Wisconsin, just nosed out Phil LaBatte, Gopher cap- tain, for the other first team defense berth and MacCollum was close to LaBatte in the voting. LaBatte was named captain of the second team. Goalie Race Is Close The race for the position of goalie was close with George Clausen, Min- nesota, beating out Ed Maki, Michi- * gan Tech, by six points for the first team berth. Jewell was right be- hind Maki in the poll but had to be content with honorable mention. Only the four, outstanding teams in the midwest were represented on the mythical teams. Minnesota, champions of the Big Ten, led the ether teams by placing three each on the first and second teams, and one honorable mention. Michigan, Wisconsin and Michigan Tech split even on the first team, each squad placing one man. The Miners placed two on the second team while MacCollum's d e f e n s e berth gained one second team posi- tion for the Wolverines. The Wolverines, the Badgers and the Technicians were tied in the honorable mention list, each placing two puckmen. Minnesota's lone win- ner of honorable mention was Russ Gray, midget forward of the Gopher "pony line." RINK WILL CLOSE The Coliseum skating rink will close at 5 p.m. Sunday, March 18, according to an announcement yes- terday by Eddie Lowrcy, coach of the Varsity hockey team.

Cochrane ay Pilot Tioers To First IDivision The Detroit Baseball Club is go- ing places this year, take it from Manager Mickey Cochrane. The Ti- gers wound up in fifth place last season about 20 full games behind the league-leading Senators. Over- coming that mental handicap is the task that faces Cochrane and Coach- es Del Baker and Cy Perkins. Since the time they captured the pennant in the early part of the last decade, little has been heard of the chances of Frank Navin's club for a position in the first division, much less, being a candidate for the World Series. This year however, with the ac- quisition of Cochrane behind the plate, and the hard-hitting Goose Goslin in the outfield, plus the added experience of a year in the big leagues for Pete Fox, Hank Green- berg and Mary Owen, Detroit fans are picking a winner. 12 Swimmers Will Leave For BigTen Meet Robertson To Compete In Three Events; Michigan Is Conceded Victory Twelve Varsity swimmers will leave Ann Arbor tomorrow afternoon for Iowa City where they will attempt to captur-e Michigan's fourth consecu- tive Western Conference swimming championship Saturday. Coach Matt Mann yesterday an- nounced definitely the make-up of the two relay teams and the indivi- dual evens in which each man will compete. rx Will Be Busy Juiian "Tel a:' Robertson, sopho- mre free styler, will be one of the busiest swimmers around the big new Hawkeye pool Saturday. Besides .wimnuing with Captain Jim Christy in the 440 and 220 the slim Cali- fornian will be a member of the 400- yard free style relay team. With Robertson on the relay team will be Ogden Dalrymple, Henry Kamienski, and Bob Renner. Renner, too, will have a busy day, swimming on both relay teams and in the 100. Taylor Drysdale and Bob Lawrence will hold down the other positions on the medley team. Dalrymple and Dick Blake will take care of the 50 yard sprint and will both compete in the 100, as well. Michigan's sole representative in the 200 yard breast stroke will be Lawrence, fighting for a second place behind Horn, Northwestern's Nation- al champion. Michigan Conceded Win Bill Boice will team with the star, Drysdale, in the 150 yard backstroke. His team already equipped with two stellar divers in Dick Degener and Derland Johnson, Mann has decided not to use Frank Fehsenfeld in any nmeets this year so that the sopho- more will have three years of com- petition starting in 1935. College papers around the Confer- ence indicate that the rest of the teams are preparing to fight it out among themselves for second and1 third places, conceding the Wolver- ines a hands-down victory. Even the Wildcats, last year's National Champs, admit that they haven't the all-around strength that Mann's title bound aggregation can flash if necessary. Continuous Action Is Promised Fans In National Wrestling Meet By FRED HUBER EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the last of a series of features on the forthcoming National IntercollegiateWrestling Meet. Double action is promised all wrestling fans who attend the Na- tional Intercollegiate Meet, now less than two weeks away. Two mats will be used and there will be two bouts going on at all times. Thus long waits will be aoided and constant movement is assured. In addition the mats will each be 24 x 24 instead of 20 x 20, which has been the size used in the past. The mats will be placed on the ground and there will be no ropes, eliminating any opportunity for "bad man" tactics, so frowned upon by amateur grapplers. Plans for the meet are practically complete. The official entry list is swelling daily, especially from col- leges in the Mid-West, and a rough estimate indicates that at least 30 colleges will be represented. The entry list will close next Monday, with all of the contestants having to report for the official weighing in at 10 p.m. Friday, March 23. Pair- ings will be made at noon and the first bouts will begin promptly at 3 p.m. Friday night's matches will start at 8 p.m. and the semi-final bouts on Saturday afternoon are slated for 3 p.m. The finals will be fought on Saturday night beginning at 8 p.m. Consolation Matches In addition to the final matches on Saturday night, the consolation bouts will be held on the other mat, simultaneously. In these matches the men defeated by the champion fight for the right to grapple the runner- up: If the consolation winner can defeat the runner-up he will gain Ssecond place, if not third will be his lot. Thus three places will be award- ed in each class. The advance'seat sale for the meet will begin this Friday. Tickets admit- ting one to the entire meet will sell at $1.50, while tickets for Friday',, afternoon and evening bouts and Saturday's afternoon contests will gc, at 40c. The price of tickets for the finals has been set at 75c. Ticket, will be placed on sale at the Admin- istration Building and the Michigan Union. Illini Enter 8 Men Official entry blanks have been re- ceived from Illinois, Ohio University, and Rochester Athaenium and Me- chanics College, in addition to those sent in by Kent and Lehigh last week. The Illini entry was for eight men, while the other two schools entered three each. Further entries, especially from the Eastern schools, are expected this week end on the basis of their showing in the Eastern Intercollegi- ate Meet. Among the sea-board schools almost certain to be repre- sented are Harvard, Princeton, Penn State, Navy, and Franklin and Mar- chall. From the Conference all but Purdue and Wisconsin are almost certain to be represented, with In- diana being expected to bring a full eight man team. Oklahoma Univer- sity, Iowa tate College, Southwestern State Teachers, and Central State Teachers, both of Oklahoma, Cornell, Oklahoma A. & M., Michigan State, and Wheaton College are other schools certain to be numbered in the final entry list. That interest in the meet is wide- spread is proven by a letter receivea here from John Drummond. Drum- mond, a star heavyweight wrestler at Princeton some years ago, and now a resident of London, England, has long been an ardent follower of amateur wrestling. He is noted for ;athering statistics on European wrestling which were of great value to Hugo Otapolik, coach of the Amer- :can team, in the last Olympic games. Drummond has interestedly followed the plans for the National Intercol- legiate meet here and signified his intention to attend. A.K.L. Finishes First In Relays At Field House The Alpha Kappa Lambda team led the fraternity division in the qlualifying round of the annual Intra- mural relays held last night at Yost. Field House with the Blue Raiders making the best time in the indepen- lent group. Phi Kappa Psi team finished sec- nd in the fraternity division, fol- lowed by Theta Chi and Tau Kappa Epsilon.

Varsity Wrestlers Place Well In Big Ten Championships One championship, one s e c o n d place and two fourth places in the Big Ten were the stock of Coach Cliff Keen's wrestlers as they began the final drive toward the National Intercollegiates to be held in Ann Arbor, March 23 and 24. During the Conference competition the Wolverine grapplers placed third both in the individual championships and in the dual meet competition. Indiana and Illinois were first and second, respectively, in both divi- sions. Capt. Art Mosier holds the lone championship, having emerged from the two-day meet with the 145 lb. title, and he will be favored to place in the National meet. Louie Parker came through in the 165 lb. division only to be defeated in the finals by Ollie Gillum, de- fending champion, in a close match. In the consolation round Parker dd- feated Ted Horsting of Northwestern to keep second place. Horsting was a winner over Parker in the North- western-Michigan dual meet. The showing of Seymour Rubin in the 126 lb. division and Don Fiero in the 118 lb. class was highly pleasing to Keen. Rubin was eliminated' by Adams who won the title, and in the consolation round lost to Cellini of Indiana. Fiero was also eliminated by a champion, Bush of Indiana. In the consolation round he was edged out by Fauser of Ohio, who scored the biggest upset of the meet by defeat- ing Felix of Minnesota by a two sec- ond time advantage. Michigan's other two entrants, Hil- ton Ponto at 175 lbs. and Carroll Sweet at 155 lbs. were both elimi- nated by finalist. Sweet was pinned by Keilhorn of Iowa and Ponto was defeated by Johnson of Minnesota in a close match.
